I have six children and the one thing I know that has been the biggest help to us is to have a really good stroller. Sure, you can go “cheap” and get one from your local discount store. But it won’t last. And it won’t stroll very well on anything but a smooth sidewalk. If you want a stroller that has wheels that can zoom over rocks and dirt, up and down hills then you want a BOB Sport Utility Stroller
I think these are sometimes referred to as a jogging stroller or a joggers stroller. Maybe even a runners stroller. It’s because they are tough and can glide over all types of terrains much like a mountain bike.
This particular stroller is RED. Red is a good neutral color which can go well with either a boy or a girl. This is the type of stroller that will last for years, so it’s good to buy a neutral color. However it does come in Pacific Blue too.
